When I used to think of space heaters, I would remember an intrusive, noisey unit. But no more! This Bionaire BH3955-U not only looks good; it is also absolutely quiet. Plus, it also has a modern, sleek design that looks good sitting in the corner of my family room.
The choice of opeating modes--lo, high, low-thermostatically controlled, and high-thermstatically controlled--offers me flexibility to meet varing conditions. And the the built-in digital thermometer is handy when I want to check room temperature before turning the unit on. Also, the built-in wheels are handy when moving this unit from one room to another.
In order to achieve sides that are cool enough to touch, heat is radiated out the top. In a large room this can be a slight disadvantage.
I am very satisfied with this unit, and would certainly consider it for purchase if I was buying this type of heater today. |

I needed a heater for our son's room which can get pretty cold in early hours in the morning (central heat is uneven). I have a BH3950-U that uses the dial controls, which is not precise enough to set temperature. So I bought this one which has down to 1 F degree temperature control and actually much cheaper ($40 vs $89 is of writing)
Besides the digital controls, it looks exactly like the 3950. I also needed to leave it in the backyard on HI setting for a couple hours to dissipate the initial plastic/whatever smell/vapor. The big plus for us is that it heats completely silently and effectively by convection. The switch click sound (when it's in auto mode) also seems quieter than my previous one. The red digital temperature display is fairly large and not harsh to look at during the night (similar to those alarm radios.) The auto temperature mode has a range of about 2-3 F degrees, i.e., even if the displayed temperature is below the number you set, it will not turn on until it's about 2-3 F degrees below the set level. It seems to turn off immediately once it reaches the set temperature though.
Now I can set the central heat lower to avoid wasting too much heat on living/family/play rooms and kitchen during the night.
Anyway, I found it to be much better than the loud (with fans) ceramic heaters I've owned before. |

| This is a great product. It keeps the room very warm. The best additional function is that it automatically shuts off if it falls or tips over. I was a little paranoid about having a heater, but this one works well around the room and has safety functions. And it's also very easy to move around and takes very little space. |
